Nellie lived her life enjoying her family and many friends she made over the years in Kirkland Lake and carried with her this verse:
Don’t walk before me,
I may not follow,
Don’t walk behind me,
I may not lead.
Just walk beside me,
And be my friend
She loved her bingo games and was involved with many organizations in Kirkland Lake. She dedicated a lot of her time to her church whether it was baking for bake tables or helping with teas, or cleaning the alter. The Family would like to thank the Rev. Catherine Murkin and the Palliative Care Givers who were with Mom to the end. In accordance with her wishes cremation has taken place and a Celebration of Life will take place at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to ST. PETER’S ANGLICAN CHURCH 7 Kirkland St. E. Kirkland Lake ON P2N 1N9. Offer Condolence for the family of Nastasia Kolybaba

Joyce & Don, Now that your mom has passed and previously, my mom (Phyllis King), Aunt Lillian (Lawrence) and Elsie Murphy, St. Peters Anglican Church will never be the same. Along with your mom, they were all involved with many functions at the church giving of their time and many delicious baked goods. All of our parents went through many years being friends and work associates. There was a lot of laughter that came from our rec room especially at New Years. When I was up visiting mom I would go to Bingo and I always had a nice chat with your mom. I am thinking of you at this time and I feel sad knowing this whole era of wonderful people is ending. Keep your happy memories close as it will bring comfort to you. Susan & Norm

To Joyce, Donald and family, My husband and I are sad to hear about Mrs Kolybaba’s passing. We visited her at TPR just a month ago and had a lovely time with her. A trip to KL always included some time wirh her and we will miss those precious moments. Having loved your mother for 60 years, her absence in my life will be a source of great sadness but I’m ever so grateful to have known the gentle and positive lady that she was. Fond regards, Lorraine

Joyce, Don and family. My sincere sympathies go out to all of you. I have many happy memories of the years I worked at the Northern Daily News with Nellie as well as Sadie O’Reilly, in the mail room. And meeting her on the street brought much laughter discussing those fun times. And Nellie those bingo rooms up there are all free so I will see you again some day. Rest in Peace my friend.
